ments, DeGagne is seeking gen1 damages for “wrongful diseral missal and breach of contract, general damage for defamation, aggravated and punitive damages, special damages, interest, cost and further relief the court deems just.” The city said it will not comment on the hearing until after the verdict. The suit stems from the hiring and then abrupt un-hiring of DeGagne for the position of CAO for the city. DeGagne’s appointment as
CAO was first announced by Mayor Kerry Cook at a city council meeting and then issued in a press release on Feb. 6, 2013. However, on Feb. 28, the city issued a second release stating DeGagne would not be appointed as CAO for the City of Williams Lake March 1. In his legal submission, DeGagne said the City’s actions constituted “a wrongful dismissal of the plaintiff and an arbitrary, willful and bad faith breach of the contract.”

For its part, the city states in court papers that as a result of some events, “the City was concerned that the Plaintiff ’s leadership style would not fit with its organization. The City had the discretion to determine whether the Plaintiff was the right fit for the City and made a good faith assessment in that regard.” Originally set for Nov. 25, 2013, the trial was postponed because one of the city’s witnesses was unable to attend the hearing.

Williams Lake City Page Paddle and Snack
Sam Ketcham Pool Referendum Question of the Week
Come and enjoy an evening paddle on beautiful Chimney Lake. This session will include paddling tips from Red Shred’s Bike and Board Shed owner, Mark Savard, and snacks prepared by a local chef. Kayaks or canoes can be borrowed from Red Shreds with a donation to the Williams Lake and Area KidSportTM chapter and must be booked when you register. Basic paddling skills are necessary.
Q: Were other options for changes to the pool considered? A: Throughout 2012, a Pool Task Force consisting of numerous community members guided an extensive facility review and provided multiple public consultation opportunities. The consultations included multiple interviews with numerous community organization and stakeholder groups, on-line input opportunities, two open houses, and several days of information kiosks that were set up around town at high profile locations during which time the Pool Task Force spoke directly with hundreds of members of the public each day. This process allowed all to consider several design concepts ranging from only minor repairs to a completely new facility and the resulting preferred concept is a direct outcome of those consultations. The recommended design from the Pool Task Force is the project to be considered by the referendum, and it received very strong support at committee meetings, open houses and all community input opportunities.

Moments before midnight the RCMP responded to a report of a house fire at Highway 20 and Hinsche Rd. (141 Mile). Police arrived on scene to find the residence fully engulfed, but all residents were accounted for a safe distance away. No foul play is suspected and it is believed the fire started in the electrical panel. Because the residence fell outside of local fire coverage area the fire was monitored by the RCMP and the Ministry of Forests.

Collector Car Day declared

Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett presents Lakers Car Club of Williams Lake president Wayne Potter with a declaration marking July 12 and the month of July as the province’s first-ever Collector Car Day and Appreciation Month. The two are standing beside Potter’s 1928 Ford Model A, which he restored.
Lakecity man warns of computer scam Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Norman Semograd was lucky. On Monday he almost lost several hundred dollars to an Internet scammer, but one of his credit cards was giving the scammer grief. Around 3:30 p.m. Semograd’s phone rang. “When I answered it, the person on the other end told me they were from Microsoft and there was a problem with my computer,” he said.
The caller told Semograd to turn on the computer and he’d see all the error messages. “I’m not very computer savvy, but it was alarming to start seeing this mouse moving things all over the screen as she told me she was doing some updates,” he said. “Then she told me for $344 Microsoft would warranty my computer for a lifetime.” Normally Semograd’s not a sucker for scammers, but as is usually the case,
the caller sounded legitimate so when she asked for a credit card he gave her the number to one. A few minutes later she told him there was a problem with the card so he gave her a different one. But it was when she said he needed to call the bank and authorize a payment to Intropay United Kingdom for an Ixaris Systems that he became suspicious and hung up. He immediately called and cancelled the credit cards and learned no payments
had gone through. “I guess when they tell you the credit card doesn’t work, it’s a way to get more and more card numbers from you,” he said. Ryan Whitehead at O-Netrix Solutions said they get calls at least once a week about similar scams. “If you let the scammer into your computer, who know what can happen,” he said. For Semograd, the scam is a reminder not to subscribe to anything when someone calls you.

NEWS Ride raises spinal cord injury awareness Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Four years ago Dave Parke crashed on his mountain bike in North Vancouver, falling 10 feet to the forest floor. When he woke up, he was face down and couldn’t move his arms or legs. Now the 48-yearold film technician, father of two, and recreation student at Langara College, is doing a one-month cycling tour through parts of the province, hoping to raise funds and awareness for Spinal Cord Injury BC. Parke embarked on his Ride for Spine tour from Dease Lake on June 7 and plans to end up at GF Strong Centre for Rehabilitation on July 17. During a stop in Williams Lake he said he knows first hand what it’s like to rehabilitate from a spinal injury. After his crash he spent three and a half months in GF Strong working with a team assigned to come up with a strategic plan for him and during that time decided he wanted to give something back. “I was in Vancouver and had lots of support but for people living in smaller places it’s diffi-

Dave Parke is riding through the province to raise awareness about spinal cord injuries. cult to get the supports,” Parke said. “It’s a physical thing for sure, but once you deal with that aspect it becomes a real medical thing.” In one and a half months he learned how to stand and then slowly learned how to walk again. And on Oct. 1, 2010 he was discharged and walked out of the hospital, something he’d only dreamed about being able to accomplish. It took courage to get back on a bicycle, but through the encouragement of one of the physiotherapists at GF Strong, he was riding a bike around the hallways.
Today he finds it more comfortable to ride a bike than walk, he said. He has deficits in his hands and feet and experiences burning and ghost pains that cause sleeplessness and fa-
tigue. “My injuries are invisible,” he said. Spinal Cord Injury BC (SCI BC) is a notfor-profit organization that helps British Columbians with spinal cord injury and their

families adapt, adjust, and thrive as they deal with a new injury or struggle with ongoing challenges of living and agin with a physical disability. Sandra Stuart of Williams Lake has been a peer program co-ordinator with SCI BC for six years After meeting with Parke she said she’s impressed he’s raising awareness and showing that people with disabilities of whatever kind can still go out and do whatever they want. “People here have learned to live their lives without a lot of supports,” Stuart said. “I know a few people who have spinal cord injuries who are very active in the community and don’t let their injuries slow them down much.”

Staff levels improving: Minister of Families Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer B.C.’s Minister of Families Stephanie Cadieux said there are more staff at the ministry’s Williams Lake office than there have been in recent years. “Luckily we’ve had some success at recruiting new people in and when I met with staff at the office, a number of people there had only been there a few weeks and one had just started a couple of days earlier,” Cadieux said after a tour of the Cariboo Thursday. The ministry has had challenges in Williams Lake and in a number of other offices in rural communities, she said,

Minister of Children and Family Development Stephanie Cadieux (left back) hears from service providers during a visit in Williams Lake last Thursday arranged by Cariboo-Chilcotin MLA Donna Barnett. adding the ministry is committed to ensuring staff levels remain strong. “We know when there’s a lag in having people there, other staff feel the effects.” While in Williams Lake she also met with representatives from the community services
co-operative, the Child Development Centre, Big Brothers and Big Sisters, Association for Community Living, Canadian Mental Health Association and the Women’s Contact Society. “Their concerns aren’t unique to Williams Lake, they are
concerns I hear in all communities,” she said. Community groups told her the need for services around child and youth mental health and numbers of children accessing those services continues to increase substantially and funds are necessary to meet those demands.
Motorcyclist in collision with logging truck A motorcyclist is being taken to Kamloops for further medical treatment after a crash between a logging truck and a dirt bike on July 8 in Williams Lake. RCMP said just af-
ter midnight on Tuesday, they responded to a motor vehicle incident on Mackenzie and Seventh Avenues. “The driver of the dirt bike, a 29 year old Williams Lake man, collided with
the trailer of the logging truck and sustained serious injuries,” Sgt. Rick LeBeuf said. The dirt bike driver was treated on scene and later taken to hospital with non
life-threatening injuries. Police said the matter remains under investigation and alcohol is not considered a factor at this time. No charges have been laid.

“It sounds like these agencies have a really good working relationship with each other and can maximize service delivery,” Cadieux said. In a meeting with the RCMP and Dr. Glen Fedor, Cadieux heard about the mental health action team that is working together to address some of the challenging issues facing the community. She also met with an adoptive parent from Williams Lake who shared her hopes for adoption programs. “Around the province there are lots of people who have stories that are heart-warming and stories that are heartbreaking,” Cadieux said.

Council has accomplished some of the goals, but that isn’t one of them. “Our community’s heart and soul is our downtown,” the document says, a “vibrant, distinct and welcoming place for community gatherings and social interactions and acts as the retail, cultural, entertainment, and social centre of the city, and it is the principle place for the exchange of locally produced goods.” One suggestion was that the Lively Downtown have a Cariboo Theme. “Williams Lake’s history is predominantly centred on the ranching industry which, during the past 150 years, has created numerous colourful stories. “Forestry and mining have also had a huge impact in area development. This history began to emerge as character in the building form in Williams Lake as early as the 1930s with the construction of the western style Delainey’s building still found on Oliver Street today. This type of façade treatment and Williams Lake character is recently taking a comeback.” (Question. So why did council consider the Republic of Life as the city theme?) This is an election year. Maybe contenders for council seats will come up with some ideas on how to revitalize the downtown. For a start they might have a look at the Imagine Williams Lake document.

World Cup final Sunday The world will know by this afternoon who will compete in Sunday’s FIFA World Cup final. Germany throttled Brazil yesterday in one semifinal while the Netherlands kick off against Argentina today. No European country has ever won the cup on South American soil so Germany and Netherlands are trying to break that spell. The pressure on Brazil proved to be too much and much like Canada in hockey at the Olympics, only gold would have been acceptable. Brazil’s star player Neymar suffered a broken vertebrae in their quarterfinal win over Colombia and will miss the remainder of the tournament making a tearful address to the nation last week. The only World Cup Canada ever qualified for was 28 years ago in Mexico in 1986. A lot of soccer fans may wonder if we will ever make it back to another World Cup anytime soon. Canada currently sits 110th in the FIFA World Rankings. It was as high as 40th back in 1996. Four teams from our region known as CONCACAF which includes Central and North American and the Caribbean qualified for the World Cup. Tiny Costa Rica were the darlings of
the tournament as the little nation of three million people made it to the quarterfinals before being knocked out by the Dutch (Netherlands) on penalty kicks. Their goaltender, Keylor Navas, was incredible throughout the tournament making jaw-dropping saves. Mexico and the U.S. both managed to make it out of group play to the final 16 but each suffered heart-breaking losses to the Netherlands and Belgium. Honduras lost all three of their games. A big reason Canada’s national team has little success is many of our best players carry dual-citizenship, which means they can play for the birth country of either their mother or father. Some of our best players that came up through our systems turn their back on Canada for a chance for greater success with another national team. The Netherlands side featured in one of today’s semifinals against Argentina will likely feature Ontario-born Jonathan De Guzman starting in their midfield and Bosnia’s star goaltender, Asmir Begovic, who grew up in Edmonton, is another who jumped ship. - Williams Lake Tribune

oing to the gas station and filling up definitely isn’t one of our favourite experiences, but nevertheless it is one of those things we still have to do to get around or move our products from one end of the country to another. The price of gasoline is largely determined on the economics of supply and demand. Depending on local or global events, the price of oil changes, and is something that anyone can control. Sometimes refineries that produce gasoline have to reduce output or shut-down due to MLA mechanical issues Musings causing spikes in Donna Barnett price. There are taxes on gasoline and fuel determined by both the federal and provincial government, with these taxes going towards investments in infrastructure, transportation projects and other various programs. The B.C. Motor Fuel Tax is placed on fuels to power any internal combustion engines such as your vehicle, boats, recreation vehicles, and any industrial equipment that requires either diesel or gasoline. The rate applied to clear gasoline by the province is 14.50 cents per litre here in the interior alongside with the 6.67 cent per litre Carbon Tax applied to fuels. For Diesel, the rate applied per litre is 15.00 cents, with a 7.67 cent per litre Carbon Tax. There are exceptions to the Carbon Tax for agricultural producers currently exempt from paying the Motor Fuel Tax and use coloured gas in equipment. We made this change last year to help our farmers and producers lower costs in their operations or use these savings to reinvest in their operations. So while fuel costs will continue to be a part of our lives look at ways to reduce fuel use in your daily commute, invest in a fuel efficient car to help you save at the pump and of course consider using B.C. Transit to get around town. Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for Cariboo-Chilcotin.

Perhaps majority not so pure Editor: Dear Mr. Trudeau: At first glance, this may appear as a collection of disjointed ramblings that serve no purpose, but I promise you that is not the case. A short time ago, I read an article in a magazine on the difference between democracy and a republic. I can just hear you asking yourself how this is relevant to you ... well, it is. Believe me, it is. A democracy is simple majority rule ... but there are factors involved that are not obvious at first glance. Example: a group of thugs consider, “vote on,” the advisability of mugging and killing a passerby. Most are in favour, so they proceed ... majority rules in its purest form. However, the innocent victim who was certainly the most involved, was not given a vote, and even if he had
been, simple numbers would have gone against him. Perhaps a “majority rule” is not so pure after all. In a republic, citizens still have freedom of expression and action, but those freedoms are more closely defined and occasionally limited for the protection of the people. Result? A vote by criminals would not be valid because murder and theft are prohibited under the law. Enter you. Recently, you made the news with your orders that Liberal MPs would be required to vote the party line on prochoice, regardless of personal convictions. Now, before you sprain something with a wild leap of erroneous conclusions, I state that abortion is not the issue, pro or con. It is something far more encompassing in its effects. The question is, rather, to whom does an elected official owe basic loyalty... constituents or the party?
Here, Mr. Trudeau, is where you have made a serious mistake. The primary purpose of an elected representative must be to guard the interests of those who elected them in the first place ... this is democracy and republicanism, and nothing else will work. Have you asked yourself how a person can believe one way and vote another, in good conscience? They cannot, of course, and to expect it is tantamount to requiring them to lie ... absolutely unconscionable. Let us say if my MP did such a thing, he would soon cease to be my MP. I believe the only ethical course for you to follow is to publicly recant and apologize. If you have even a fraction of integrity, I once saw in you, you will.

How your municipal tax dollars are being spent Editor: A coloured circular graph provided on the city’s website is designed as a loonie so that one can clearly see that almost 50 per cent of operating dollars are spent on services. The problem is, according to the dollar graph, for every one dollar, $1.02 is being spent.
I am surprised the mayor’s office released public information that suggests less than perfect accountability. Graphics are a great visual aide but graphing requires some mathematical accuracy, as does budgeting. Alena Gross Williams Lake

Quick start to wildfire season in Cariboo Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer After a wet spring and start of summer, the Cariboo Fire Centre has experienced 19 new fires during the last week. “Fifteen of these wildfires were caused by the past weekend’s lightning storm and the other four were human-caused,” Cariboo Fire Centre communications specialist Sandra Wagner said. “The majority of these are small spot-sized wildfires and are located north and east of Quesnel.” So far, the largest fire is located west of Isaac Lake and has burned 20 hectares. Wagner said this wildfire recently re-

The Cariboo Fire Centre and the Wildfire Management Branch may begin to experience heightened levels of activity soon
due to increasing temperatures. Highs of 32 C are forecasted for Saturday in Sunday for Williams Lake.
“We would like to remind people to be cautious with their campfires,” Wagner urged, adding anyone lighting a campfire must maintain a fireguard by removing flammable debris from around the campfire area and must have a hand tool or at least eight litres of water available to properly extinguish the fire before leaving the area for any length of time. To report a wildfire, or unattended campfire, call *5555 on your cellular phone or tollfree at 1 800 663-5555. For the latest information on fire activity, conditions and prohibitions, visit the Wildfire Management Branch website: www. bcwildfire.ca.
Family pets should not be hot dogs Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Pet owners are reminded to be vigilant when it comes to animals in a vehicle. On Monday a Williams Lake resident saw a very hot boarder collie/pit cross dog pant-
ing in the front seat of a car parked outside of a local grocery store. She waited 10 minutes for the owner to show up. When the owner and a friend arrived at the car, and the woman challenged them on leaving the dog in the
heat, she was brushed off and basically told the dog was just fine and that the owner knew what she was doing. The resident said the dog owner’s reaction made her blood boil. She’s not alone. The Humane Society
says pets should not be left in a parked car for a minute, not even with the car running and air conditioner on. On a warm day, temperatures inside a vehicle can rise rapidly to dangerous levels. For example, when it’s 29 C the tempera-
ture inside a car with the windows opened slightly can reach 38 C within 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, the temperature will reach 48 C. “Pets may suffer irreversible organ damage or die,” the Humane Society warns.

Hair drive for wigs a success

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A local hair drive garnered a lot in a little amount of time. In May, Integrated Elements Wellness Clinic in Williams Lake coordinated a hair drive, collecting hair for 360 Hair Salon in Langley to make wigs for children who have lost their hair because of cancer. “We received 16 hair donations and raised $800 cash,” said office manager Bobbie Krist. “The Cancer Society told us they normally get 12 to 14 hair donations in a year.” The clinic approached Country Cottage Hair Salon who agreed to offer free hair cuts the week of May 19 - 24 to anyone who would donate hair. All of the hair was then presented to the Cancer Society at the annual Relay for Life held at Boitanio Park on May 31. Krist credited chiropractor Dr. Christie Kronyk for coming up

WL OAPO celebrates 50th anniversary Win Gooding Special to Tribune/Advisor The first day of summer was beautiful and a welcome change in the Cariboo. We are also thankful that Sunday, June 22 turned out to be sunny as well for the Williams Lake OAPO Branch 93 50th anniversary celebration at the Seniors’ Activity Centre. We were also fortunate to have our B.C. OAPO president Jennifer Coburn attend for the 50th anniversary of our branch. Jennifer presented the Williams Lake Old Age Pensioners Organization Branch 93 with their 50th year certificate as a branch of the provincial board of the OAPO and thanked them for their 50 years of dedication to the organization. Jennifer also presented long service awards to Pat Cassidy and Win Gooding for their loyal, dedicated and devoted service to their Branch 93 and the B.C. OAPO provincial board. Acting Mayor Ivan Bonnell welcomed everyone attending and congratulated the Williams Lake OAPO for all they do to support seniors and the community of Williams Lake and area. Also attending the anniversary celebration were OAPO branch members from Quesnel and Lac La Hache. The OAPO Branch 93 presented the Museum of the Cariboo-Chilcotin with an information browser in commemoration of the Williams Lake OAPO Branch 93 50th anniversary milestone. Many thanks to all the OAPO members who helped to prepare the food and serve the tea coffee for the occasion. Also to those who set up the tables and decorated the centre so beautifully for the occasion. The branch is grateful for all the seniors and friends who came to make the day so very special. June has been a very busy month. On June 10, 11, and 12 the B.C. OAPO convention was held in Agassiz. Three delegates attended from our Williams Lake OAPO Branch. They were Floris Martineau, Marlene Davis and Win Gooding. There were 60 members attending. Over the three days 47 resolutions concerning seniors were dealt with. A few of the ones concerning seniors that passed are as follows: • Maintain medicare as it now stands. • Maintain the Canada Health Act. • High cost of prescription drugs and dispensing fees.

Annette O’Connor led the workshop on memory and aging. Sheila Pither led the workshop on chronic disease. Roundtable discussions were held by each group at the end of the sessions. Next year the B.C. OAPO convention will be held in Merritt. Our delegates felt that the convention overall was well worth attending. It’s comforting to know that OAPO branches from all over B.C. are fighting for the same concerns for seniors across B.C. and Canada. The Williams Lake OAPO branch will not hold meetings in July and August but will resume again on Sept. 11 at 1 p.m. at the Seniors’ Centre. B.C.

Lakecity student wins business scholarship Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer A positive attitude, some hard work and an essay on his participation in the B.C. Junior Achievement program have combined to win Ryan Therrien a $2,500. education scholarship. Last year, Ryan was a Grade 11 student at Lake City Secondary School participating in the Marketing 12 Junior Achievement program taught by Linda Black, with local business mentors Paul Eves at Scotiabank, and Rhonda Hordiuk at BMO Bank of Montreal. Ryan and 11 other students formed a company called Sol Vitra, a small business operated by the 2012/13 marketing class which sold coloured sunglasses. In only a few months, Sol Vitra managed to sell 653 pairs of sunglasses and donate $3,700 to the Youth for Christ’s Hot Spot centre for youth. A Grade 12 student who graduated in June, Ryan went on to help mentor the award-winning Cariboo Cookies Marketing 12 class this year and to apply for

the $2,500 B.C. Junior Achievers’ Donald Rix Inspiring Business Excellence Scholarship. The scholarship application entailed writing a 500-word essay about what he learned as a Junior Achiever, participating in a personal interview, securing two letters of recommendation, and a personal resume. Ryan, served as Sol Vitra’s vice-president of finance and credits the help and support he received from their teacher and business mentors for the company’s success and thanks them for their support in the scholarship application process. He says Rhonda Hordiuk wrote him a wonderful letter of recommendation to go with his essay, and Eves was very supportive, giving him tips on personal interviews which he very much appreciated. He also thanks his teacher Linda Black for her support and writing a wonderful letter of recommendation, to go with his essay in which he writes in part: “Long hours, hard work, dedication, and passion are the mere
beginning and heart of any successful business.” He went on to explain how the company worked and exceeded its goals, concluding: “Every day had its own set of challenges and I faced them with a positive, but still dedicated attitude towards excellence, which ended in success,” Ryan says. “When speaking to other students, I always encourage them to take the program and share my positive experience with them.” Ryan plans to use his scholarship to pursue a career in electrical engineering this fall. The Dr. Rix scholarship is presented annually to an aboriginal, rural, or immigrant student in who has demonstrated significant growth in business excellence skills, improvement in learning skills, and demonstrated leadership and/or entrepreneurial skills. Dr. Rix was one of B.C.’s leading entrepreneurs in the field of life sciences, community volunteer, philanthropist, angel investor, and mentor to countless young entrepreneurs. He was inducted into

Lake City Secondary’s Cariboo Cookies win JA’s first-ever Rural Company Program Award Junior Achievement of British Columbia (JABC) recently announced that Cariboo Cookies, a student-run company from Lake City Secondary School has won the first ever Ledcor Group Rural Company of the Year Award. Cariboo Cookies with students Sabrina Kyle, Pippa Reissner, Liam Fletcher, Carly Lange, Brady Gale and Dayton Ablitt sold gourmet fortune cookies and donated their net proceeds to the Boys and Girls Club of Williams Lake and District. The six students participated in this Junior Achievement of British Columbia program with support from Linda Black, their marketing teacher, business mentors Paul Eves (Scotiabank) and Rhonda Hordiuk (BMO Bank of Montreal), and JA student alumni Tim Johnson, and Ryan Therrien (this year’s provincial Dr. Rix scholarship winner). Black said that both the Cariboo Cookies and Ryan Therrien awards are exciting news for Lake City Secondary School Williams Lake Campus students and were presented during the school awards ceremony in June.
The Ledcor Group Rural Company of the Year Award is a new award which supports the Junior Achievement Company Program (CP) outside of metropolitan areas, reports JA marketing and communications manager Rosine HageMoussa. CP is hands-on experience which complements high school business curricula. The program enables high school students to learn about business by planning, organizing and operating a small business venture. In the space of one school term, students participate in the whole business cycle, from identifying a product or service through business planning, marketing and sales to final wrap-up and liquidation of their venture. Cariboo Cookies sold JA company shares and advertising space in their school’s media outlets to raise seed funding. They used a multifaceted marketing strategy which included collaborations with community partners leading to coverage in their local media, helping to increase their product sales. They exceeded their sales targets and sold out their inventory.

in the Williams Lake area Talking defibrillator program expands Tom Fletcher Black Press The B.C. government is adding another $1 million to its program to place automated defibrillators at sports facilities, recreation centres and libraries around the province. The machines are programmed to allow anyone to use them when someone suffers a sudden cardiac arrest. When activated, they play record-
ed instructions to apply the electrodes to an unconscious person, then signal whether an electric shock is indicated to restart the heart. Health Minister Terry Lake said the automated defibrillators can be used without risk to the patient, and save precious seconds before ambulance paramedics respond to a 9-11 call. The machines also instruct bystanders to perform

chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Dr. William Dick, vice president of medical programs B.C. Ambulance Service, said ambulance attendants respond to more than 2,000 cardiac arrest calls a year, and the machines already in place have proven their effectiveness. “I’ve seen this myself in my practice as an emergency physician,” Dick said. “It’s incredible when a save like this occurs, and a person is revived and brought into the emergency department. And then we continue their care and they walk out of the hospital alive and well.” Sudden cardiac arrest can affect anyone, and can be triggered by drowning, stroke, electrocution, suffocation, drug overdose, a car accident or other injury. It differs from a heart attack, which is caused by restricted blood flow to the heart and is usually signalled by chest pains. The program is cosponsored by the B.C.

Williams Lake Blue Fins close out season with ‘AAA’ provincials The Williams Lake Blue Fins finished the season with a strong showing at the B.C. ‘AAA’ Provincial Swimming Championships. The six members were part of the biggest team Williams Lake had sent in many years — Coral Choi, Madison Blusson, Kara Zavitz, Gracie Frost, Ashley Beauchamp and Leif Brandson were all in attendance. Beauchamp and Choi swam their way into the ‘B’ finals to be recognized as some of the top swimmers in the province. Choi managed to swim the 100-metre breaststroke in a Blue Fins, club-record time to earn a spot in the ‘A’ final and to become top eight in the province. In the finals she finished 11th overall in the 200-metre breaststroke, resetting another of her current club records. Beauchamp also made it into the 400-metre individual medley ‘B’ final, finishing her first ‘AAA’ meet with a 16th-place finish. Blue Fins head coach Chad Webb said Beauchamp swam a solid meet posting several personal-best times. Brandson and Frost, meanwhile, continued to better their times from just two weeks ago at the ‘AA’ provincial championships. “Both had impressive improvements, once again,” Webb said. Frost managed to finish 11th place in the 200-metre backstroke. Both Frost and Brandson have another chance to compete at the ‘AAA’ provincial championships next year in the same age group. Zavitz and Blusson also had solid showings, joining Choi

Woodjam Ranch takes Ranch Challenge Liz Twan Special to Tribune/Advisor The smiles on the ladies’ faces tell the story; after two days of fierce competition, frequently out in the pouring rain and slogging through a muddy arena, the ranchteam with the most girl-power — the only team with two women — came out on top of the heap. The Woodjam Ranch team of Racquel Russell (left), Ricki Seelhof and husband, Chad Seelhof roped, branded, penned, sorted and raced their way to victory in the 2014 Williams Lake Stampede Ranch Challenge. By placing third in both the cattle penning and the relay race and capturing a firstplace finish in the ranch branding potion of the event, they accumulated 600 points overall, edging the second place team from Riske Creek Ranch (Cuyler Huffman, James Stafford and Travis Redl — 560 points) by a slim 40-point margin. The beautiful buckles sponsored by Prairie Coast Equipment (Kamloops, BC) were presented by Al Wilson left (volunteer) and Willie Crosina (Stampede director).

Wild West Riders make Stampede debut
Summer Elegance
Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Performing at the 88th Williams Lake Stampede for the first time ever was exciting and an honour for the Wild West Riders. “We did all five performances,” coach Brenda Phillips said. “The girls really enjoyed themselves.” Formed three years ago, the Wild West Riders practice regularly for seven months of the year from March until September. “I’ve had riders join who are at all levels of riding,” Phillips said. “It’s so neat to watch them work to-

lips described as the “hardest” manoeuvre for riders. Horses and riders come from each end
of the arena and ride alongside each other. All of the horses must turn to the left and there is no room
for error. “If one doesn’t turn left, the whole train will crash,” Phillips said.

seats are supportive and comfortable. The rear seats too are comfy and slide for and aft for more cargo storage. When placed in the normal position, the legroom isn’t ample but on par with others in this class. Connecting to the Cherokee is a snap with the optional 8.4-inch Uconnect system that pairs with smartphone in seconds, is very quick between commands, and has nice looking graphics. The base screen is five inches but has many of the same functionality. Behind the steering wheel, inside the instrument cluster, is another programmable screen for all the information the driver needs frequently. Drive The base 2.4L 4-cylinder with 184hp is the base engine on all trim levels. For just $1,300 any Cherokee can be equipped with the optional 3.2L V6 engine – making the walk up to this 271hp engine within reach for many buyers. In addition, this is the very first application of a 9-speed automatic anywhere in the auto industry, providing improved fuel economy and drivability. Having a chance to drive both the 4-cylinder and V6 models with the all-new 9-speed automatic, I’m torn. The V6 is the engine of choice for towing, steep mountain

runs and longer distance driving. The flip side is that the 4-cylinder is a very good in-city commuter and the lighter engine helps this Cherokee to corner, brake and manouevre better. The 9-speed automatic shifts quickly and smoothly, in fact I forgot it had so many cogs but it does improve fuel economy with a highway rating of 6.4L/100km with the 4-cylinder and 7.0L with the V6. Most Canadians will opt for the AWD versions thanks to our winter conditions, but here too there are more choices. Jeep has included three AWD systems. The first is a called Active Drive 1 with a selectable drive mode called Select-Terrain, for automatic, snow, mud and sand settings. The second is called Active Drive 2 and offers a two-speed mode for low speed crawling. The most aggressive system is Active Drive Lock, which comes in the off-road purpose-built Cherokee called Trailhawk. The Trailhawk is a ‘real’ Jeep; this is thanks to a locking rear differential and a host of electronic aids. The most impressive feature is the low speed crawling mode for both up and down hill tasks. Therefore, Jeep purists, yes there is a Cherokee for you. Verdict This new Cherokee is off to a fantastic start. Sales are strong and the sharp design is bringing in buyers, not shoving them away. The 2014 Cherokee could not be further away from the last model; this is a thoroughly modern SUV with go-anywhere capability and aroundtown refinement that needs to be experienced. The Lowdown Power: 184hp 2.4L 4-cylinder, and 271hp 3.2L V6. Fill-up: 9.9L/7.0L/100km (city/highway AWD) Sticker price: $23,695-$32,195
